  • The 1st trails on the 2022 Jeep Devaluation Tour took us to Calamity Jane, Bear Mountain, and Camp 5 Road.
    We found out very quickly that we are not built enough for South Dakota's "6 of 10" rated trails. We've done 7 and 8 rated in Colorado, so either their rating scale is different, or Colorado is wrong lol.
    I hit my transmission pan, oil pan, diffs, axles, frame, fenders, EVERYTHING on this one, and decided to play it safe after the first 400 yards of this trail kicked our butts.
    South Dakota was an absolute blast, stay tuned next weekend for more wheeling action!

    You can really scrape the barnacles off on those rocks--I mean trails!! Holy cow! That was some crazy ROCKing and rolling. The rocks varied in size so much, but made up for it with their jaggedness!

    Very cool! It's great that you're laughing. I tend to curse like a sailor with every scrape, and could not make a film about such a trail unless it was bleeped the bleep out. I think you should have taken the left turn instead of doing the river bed. Just a thought.

    Enjoyed your video....a word of advice from a South Dakota local... skid plates here are NOT optional... and the trail rating here...well...a 4 here is a 7 at other places. If you come back out here I'd like to meet up with you

    Looks like you need a few upgrades if you continue to run tracks like these. Smash and bash with nothing broken was amazing.

      after i knew i hit the transmission, i was extremely careful with tire placement lol. 4 inches away were the trans cooler lines... that's a bad day if you rip those off.

    Hit your transmission pan? I’m surprised you don’t have aftermarket skid plates that cover the engine, trans and transfer case, we have the Smittybilt steel skid plates on both our Jeeps for protection.

    Dude! You ran part of Calamity (and were thinking about Hal Johns!) in a 4-door on apparently 35s with no aftermarket skid plates, no aftermarket diff covers and factory control arms? Holy crap, you're brave. What trails are next? Kong? T-Back? Bikini? ;-)

    Is your purpose to run your vehicle as close to stock as possible I know you do a lot of off-road recoveries but I've seen people who have more Stout more element resistibility and still be able to do recoveries but if it's your personal preference to run a stock vehicle then that's your preference but I think you got a bug I think you like the trails you were on and you're going to have to get a little more flexible and a little more armor thanks for the video

      well honestly, the JL has like 14+ inches of ground clearance to the frame. we've driven colorado "6's" without incident or just careful tire placement. i knew we were gonna push the envelope a bit in SD but i wasn't expecting quite that much lol. even the red jeep on 37s with 4+ inches of lift wasn't built enough for these "6" obstacles.
